2. Payment Authorizations.

2.1. Checkout. In order to make purchases using the HTS Connect Services from Hopper and/or from third-party travel service providers (e.g., airlines), you will need to provide Hopper with certain information. You agree: (i) to provide and maintain accurate, current and complete information for your booking , (ii) to maintain the security of your information by not sharing, disclosing, or making available access credentials to any unauthorized person, and (iii) to notify Hopper promptly if you discover or otherwise suspect any security breaches relating to your use of the HTS Connect Services. You agree to be responsible for all activities and purchases that occur using the HTS Connect Services, and you accept all risks of unauthorized access to the HTS Connect Services on your behalf resulting from any act or omission by you in violation of these terms.  Information entered in connection with a booking via the HTS Connect Services will be stored for that booking only, and will not be linked to any prior or future bookings. 

2.2. Payment Methods. Hopper enables you to make purchases from Hopper, and/or third-party travel service providers, by allowing you to provide a valid, authorized debit, credit,  prepaid credit card or other authorized payment method during checkout (“Payment Instrument”).  By entering a payment method in connection with your booking, you represent to Hopper that you are an authorized user of the Payment Instrument. You are responsible for ensuring that the Payment Instrument(s) associated with your booking is at all times current, non-expired, and valid for payments. Hopper is not a bank and does not offer banking or “money transmission services,” and is not a “money service business,” as those terms are defined by the United States Department of Treasury. 

2.3. Payment Authorization. You authorize Hopper, and/or applicable third-party travel service providers, to charge your  entered Payment Instrument(s) for the total amount of all purchases or other payment transactions initiated while using the HTS Connect Services by you during checkout as necessary to complete the purchase, payment or other financial transaction requested or agreed to by you, including without limitation all fees and taxes.  In some cases, Hopper may pass your Payment Instrument(s) to a third party travel service provider (such as an airline) in order to process your authorized payment. By making a booking, you authorize such transfer of your Payment Instrument. In the event you are entitled to a reversal, refund, chargeback, or other adjustment associated with a transaction you made using your Payment Instrument, you also authorize a credit to your Payment Instrument(s) by Hopper as necessary to execute that transaction. 

2.4. Failed Transactions. In the event that a charge to any Payment Instrument fails, you agree to link a new, valid Payment Instrument within three (3) business days of notification by Hopper. Your l purchased Hopper products and third party travel services may be cancelled, until a valid Payment Instrument is provided and the outstanding uncharged balance is resolved. You further authorize Hopper to attempt to re-submit any failed charge to any Payment Instrument(s) associated with your account at subsequent times until successful.  Hopper is not responsible for any charges imposed by the issuer of your Payment Instrument as a result of any failed charge or re-charge by Hopper.  To the extent that Hopper is unable to successfully charge any Payment Instrument entered as payment for authorized transactions for more than thirty (30) days, you understand and agree that Hopper may employ a collection agency or other business in an effort to collect any outstanding debts and fees associated with your booking, and you will not contest the use of a third party to collect the debt and fees owed to Hopper. You agree that you will be responsible for any legal, court, arbitration or collection agency fees associated with rectifying your Hopper account and all monies owed thereunder. You agree that Hopper, or any agency or business employed by Hopper, has the right to contact you and your heirs via telephone, email or (if not prohibited by law) in-person using the information you provided during any contact with Hopper, or any other publicly available or attainable information, in an effort to collect any monies and fees owed to Hopper, whether specifically referenced in these Terms or not, and such contact may be made in a manual or automated fashion.

2.5. Unauthorized Transactions; Lost Devices. If any transaction receipt received by you appears incorrect, or was unauthorized or fraudulent, you shall notify Hopper immediately, by contacting Flair, which will redirect you to Hopper Support by submitting a request through the information available via your booking confirmation email.

2.6. Currency Conversions. Some prices and/or fees provided by the HTS Connect Services for purchases may be displayed to you in a default, or your preferred or selected, currency, although the charge made to your Payment Instrument by a third-party service provider will be in a local currency. In these cases, the amount charged to your Payment Instrument for the purchase may vary slightly from the amount displayed, due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates beyond Hopper’s control. Your Payment Instrument provider or issuer may also include a fee to process the transaction or convert currency, plus any applicable taxes for international purchases.

3. Consent to Electronic Communications, Disclosures and Notices; Paper Copies. 

3.1.  By accepting these Terms, you agree that Hopper will provide the Terms, its Privacy Policy, and all other applicable terms, and any amendments made by Hopper thereto, as well as all disclosures, notices, transaction receipts, transaction authorizations, and all transaction statements or other information required by law (“Disclosures”), electronically to the email address you provide.  Your electronic acceptance or receipt of the Disclosures, and/or your continued use of the HTS Connect Services after publication of the Disclosures by Hopper, has the same effect as if you received them in paper, or signed them in ink. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, Disclosures are considered received and accepted by you within 24 hours of the time emailed or messaged to you, whether or not you choose to read them. In order to access and retain the electronic Disclosures you will need, and represent that you have, the following: (i) a computer or mobile device with an internet connection; (ii) a valid email address that can receive emails from @hopper.com and (iii) sufficient storage space to save past Disclosures and/or an installed printer to print them. You have a right to receive Disclosures in paper form. If you wish to receive a paper copy of any Disclosure, or any transaction receipt, you may request a copy of the Disclosure or receipt within 180 days of the date of the Disclosure or receipt. Hopper will provide paper copies free of charge. Requests to receive any paper copy, or to withdraw your consent to future electronic Disclosures, may be made by mailing a written request to Hopper (USA), Inc., Attn: Legal Department, 265 Franklin Street, Suite 1702, Boston, MA 02110. Requests to cancel your consent to future electronic Disclosures will be completed in a reasonable time. 

3.2. Consent to Communications and Contact. By making any purchase or booking using the HTS Connect Services, you consent to be contacted by Hopper, and/or by the third-party provider of the travel services booked, electronically, including via email, phone, SMS, in-app messaging, or other available digital messaging service, for any purpose related to your use of the HTS Connect  Services, and/or any bookings or other purchases made by you via the HTS Connect Services.

3.3. Your computer and/or mobile device must be connected to the internet in order to access the HTS Connect Services and to make and receive communications to/from Hopper, including to contact Hopper’s customer service team. You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for your device to have internet connectivity and are responsible for all  third-party charges related to  such access and/or the transmission and receipt of data.

3.4. When you make a booking with Hopper, you agree that communications to Hopper’s Customer Support team related to your booking may be made via any channels, such as phone, SMS, or email, that may be initiated by Hopper or you.   

4. Hopper Sort Order.

4.1. When you search for flights  using the HTS Connect Services, Hopper provides you a number of options for displaying, filtering, and sorting the results, which includes price and duration.

5. Third-Party Travel Services.

5.1. The HTS Connect Services provide access to travel information, such as flight pricing and availability, features and amenities, and terms and conditions, provided and maintained by third-parties. These third-party providers are independent contractors and not agents of Hopper. Your contract for these travel services is with the third-party provider, and not with Hopper.  While Hopper works hard to ensure correctness, Hopper cannot verify, and is not responsible for, the accuracy of information provided by third parties regarding their respective services. Hopper also is not liable for the acts, errors, delays, omissions, representations, warranties, breaches, bankruptcy, or negligence of any such third-party providers or for any personal injuries, death, property damage, or other damages or expenses resulting from third-party provided services.  Hopper is not responsible to make any refund in the event of any delay, failure, breach, cancellation, overbooking, strike, force majeure or other causes beyond Hopper’s direct control.  By offering third-party travel services for booking via the HTS ConnectServices, Hopper does not endorse, or make any representation or warranty about, the quality of any service provider. In addition, unless otherwise expressly set forth, Hopper does not purport to be affiliated with, or to be endorsed by any third-party service providers.

5.2. The purchase of third-party travel products and services through the HTS Connect Services, and entitlement to cancellation or refunds for such services, including eligibility to loyalty programs, will be governed by and subject to additional terms and conditions from such providers, and subject to laws and regulations imposed by government entities, and you agree to abide by all such terms, laws, and regulations.  Where possible, Hopper will make these terms available to you. However, additional applicable terms may be provided on the third-party provider’s website.  Please read these additional provider terms and conditions carefully prior to purchase from any third-party service provider using the HTS Connect Services, and ensure that you understand the full terms applicable to your airfare or other third-party service. If you make bookings on behalf of another person(s) with their authorization, you agree that you will inform such other person(s) about these Terms and any third-party terms, rules and restrictions that apply to the bookings made on their behalf. You understand and agree that any violation of third party terms of service may result in a cancellation of your bookings, denial of service, and forfeit of any amounts paid. Hopper is not responsible for any damages resulting from your violation of third party terms. 

5.3. Air Bookings: Air travel bookings are only guaranteed once the purchase has been completed and the tickets have been issued, as confirmed to you by Hopper by email following your purchase. Until such time, you may not be able to view information about your reservation on the carrier’s website. 

5.3.1. Multi-Ticket Travel. Your booking of air travel through the HTS Connect Services will be by combining  multiple one-way tickets, on one or more airlines, instead of a single one-way or roundtrip ticket. Combining one-way tickets in this manner may provide a greater choice of flights, at lower cost. However, each one-way ticket in your journey will be subject to its own airline rules, restrictions and fees. For such travel, if one of your flights is impacted by a flight irregularity (e.g., an airline-initiated cancelation, delay or schedule change) and such irregularity may cause you to miss your departure for another flight on which you are separately ticketed, the airline for that other flight is under no obligation to re-accommodate you, and subject to costs covered by Hopper’s Missed Connection Guarantee which is included with the HTS Connect Services, you remain responsible for any charges due to changes (if permitted) to the routing, travel dates or times, or carriers, for the portion of your journey covered by such separate ticket(s). Some tickets may not be eligible for passenger-initiated changes under applicable fare rules, and “no-showing” for a flight may result in the ticket being canceled and losing all remaining value.  Your flights purchased using the HTS Connect Services will include Hopper’s Missed Connection Guarantee for Flair customers, which is subject to its own terms and conditions which are located above, and incorporated herein by reference. 

Multi-ticket travel may require switching terminals and / or picking up baggage and re-checking baggage prior to the next scheduled flight in the itinerary. This may require the possible exit and re-entry of security. Prior to purchasing a multi-ticket itinerary, please be aware of any timing considerations that may impact your ability to complete your trip. While multi-ticket itineraries include Hopper’s Missed Connection Guarantee, you are solely responsible for retrieving your luggage in between destinations and being aware of any baggage and security obligations in between connections. 

5.3.2. International Air Travel. You are solely responsible for ensuring that you meet all of the entry requirements imposed by governmental authorities at your destination(s), including countries you may just be transiting through, including health and passport/visa requirements, and that your travel documents, such as passports and visas (transit, business, tourist, and otherwise), are in order. Hopper does not provide advice regarding entry requirements for any destination. You must consult the appropriate embassy or consulate for such information. Requirements may change and you should check for up-to-date information before booking and departure. Hopper is not responsible if you are refused entry onto a flight or into any country due to your failure to satisfy any entry requirements.  BY OFFERING RESERVATIONS FOR TRAVEL PRODUCTS IN PARTICULAR DESTINATIONS, HOPPER DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT TRAVEL TO SUCH AREAS IS ADVISABLE OR WITHOUT RISK, AND IS NOT LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OR LOSSES THAT MAY RESULT FROM TRAVEL TO SUCH DESTINATIONS. 

5.3.3. Advice to International Passengers on Limitations of Liability. PASSENGERS EMBARKING UPON A JOURNEY INVOLVING AN ULTIMATE DESTINATION OR A STOP IN A COUNTRY OTHER THAN THE COUNTRY OF DEPARTURE ARE ADVISED THAT THE PROVISIONS OF AN INTERNATIONAL TREATY (THE WARSAW CONVENTION, THE 1999 MONTREAL CONVENTION, OR OTHER TREATY), AS WELL AS A CARRIER’S OWN CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE OR TARIFF PROVISIONS, MAY BE APPLICABLE TO THEIR ENTIRE JOURNEY, INCLUDING ANY PORTION ENTIRELY WITHIN THE COUNTRIES OF DEPARTURE AND DESTINATION. THE APPLICABLE TREATY GOVERNS AND MAY LIMIT THE LIABILITY OF CARRIERS TO PASSENGERS FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY, DESTRUCTION OR LOSS OF, OR DAMAGE TO, BAGGAGE, AND FOR DELAY OF PASSENGERS AND BAGGAGE.

ADDITIONAL PROTECTION CAN USUALLY BE OBTAINED BY PURCHASING INSURANCE FROM A PRIVATE COMPANY. SUCH INSURANCE IS NOT AFFECTED BY ANY LIMITATION OF THE CARRIER’S LIABILITY UNDER AN INTERNATIONAL TREATY. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION PLEASE CONSULT YOUR AIRLINE OR INSURANCE COMPANY REPRESENTATIVE. 

​​5.3.4. Notice of Contract Terms Incorporated by Reference. Your contract of carriage with the carrier that provides you with carriage by air, whether international, domestic or a domestic portion of an international journey is subject to this notice; to any notice or receipt of the carrier; and to the carrier’s individual terms and conditions (Conditions), related rules, regulations and policies (Regulations) and any applicable tariffs. If your carriage is by more than one carrier, different Conditions, Regulations and any applicable tariffs may apply for each carrier. The Conditions, Regulations and any applicable tariffs of each carrier are, by this notice, incorporated by reference into and made part of your contract of carriage. The Conditions may include, but are not restricted to: (a) Conditions and limits on the carrier’s liability for the bodily injury or death of passengers; (b) Conditions and limits on the carrier’s liability for the loss of, damage to or delay of goods and baggage, including fragile or perishable goods; (c) rules for declaring a higher value for baggage and for paying any supplementary fee that may apply; (d) application of the carrier’s Conditions and limits of liability to the acts of the carrier’s agents, servants and representatives, including any person providing either equipment or services to the carrier; (e) claims restrictions, including time limits by which passengers must file claims or bring actions against the carrier; (f) rules about reconfirmations or reservations; check in times; the use, duration and validity of air transportation services; and the carrier’s right to refuse carriage; (g) rights of the carrier and limits on the carrier’s liability for delay or failure to perform a service, including schedule changes, substitution of alternative carriers or aircraft and re-routing, and, when required by applicable law, the obligation of the carrier to notify passengers of the identity of the operating carrier or substituted aircraft; and (h) rights of the carrier to refuse carriage to passengers who fail to comply with applicable laws or who fail to present all necessary travel documents.

You can obtain additional information on items (a) through (h) above and about your contract of carriage (including how to request a copy thereof) at places where transportation on the carrier is sold.  Many carriers also have this information on their websites.  When required by applicable law, you have the right to inspect the full text of your contract of carriage at the carrier’s airport and sales offices, and upon request, to receive a copy by mail or other delivery service from each carrier free of charge. If a carrier sells air transportation services or checks baggage specifying carriage on another carrier, it does so only as agent for the other carrier.

5.3.5. Itinerary Changes/Cancelations. Itinerary changes or cancelations you request (i.e., voluntary refunds), if permitted under the airline fare rules applicable to your ticket, may be subject to airline-imposed fees in addition to any fare differential at re-ticketing. Such fees vary by airline. Your airline may permit a portion of the fare paid for an unused nonrefundable ticket to be applied toward the purchase of future travel. For many airlines, tickets not changed or canceled prior to departure have no remaining value.

5.3.6. Tax Refunds. In case of a no-show or cancellation of an air booking, you may be entitled to a refund of government taxes and fees included in the price of the ticket purchased.  Where you are eligible for a refund, you can request such a refund from Hopper customer service, who will submit your request to the airline on your behalf.

5.3.7. EU Traveler Rights. If you are traveling into or out of the European Union, or on an EU-based airline, you may have rights in the event that your flight is cancelled, delayed or you are denied boarding. Please consult Regulation (EC) 261/2004 for more information.

5.3.8. Hazardous Materials. United States federal law forbids the carriage of hazardous materials aboard aircraft in your luggage or on your person. A violation can result in five years' imprisonment and penalties of $250,000 or more (49 U.S.C. 5124). Hazardous materials include explosives, compressed gases, flammable liquids and solids, oxidizers, poisons, corrosives and radioactive materials. Examples: Paints, lighter fluid, fireworks, tear gases, oxygen bottles, and radio-pharmaceuticals. There are special exceptions for small quantities (up to 70 ounces total) of medicinal and toilet articles carried in your luggage, spare lithium batteries and certain smoking materials carried on your person. Certain items are required to be carried with you onboard the aircraft. Spare lithium batteries and cigarette lighters must be removed from checked or gate-checked baggage and carried onboard the aircraft.

5.3.9. Airline Prohibited Practices. The circumvention of an air carrier’s rules, including practices such as back-to-back ticketing (booking two or more tickets with overlapping travel dates in order to circumvent minimum stay requirements) and hidden-city, point beyond or throwaway ticketing (booking tickets that include segments you do not intend to use in order to circumvent an air carrier’s pricing structure), is prohibited by many air carriers. You agree that you will not use the Apps or Services to engage in these or similar activities if prohibited by an airline. CARRIERS RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE CARRIAGE TO ANY PERSON WHO HAS ACQUIRED A TICKET IN VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAW OR THE CARRIER’S TARIFFS, RULES OR REGULATIONS.

5.3.10. Required Information. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA), part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, requires Hopper to collect information from you for purposes of watch list screening, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. Sec. 114, and the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004. TSA may share information you provide with law enforcement or intelligence agencies or others under its published system of records notice. For more information, please see www.tsa.gov. 

5.3.11. Data Transfer. GOVERNMENTS MAY REQUIRE YOUR AIRLINE TO PROVIDE INFORMATION ON OR PERMIT ACCESS TO PASSENGER DATA, INCLUDING INFORMATION WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO COLLECT FROM YOU DURING THE RESERVATION PROCESS.

 5.3.12.  U.S. Notice – Overbooking of Flights. Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on a flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation. If the flight is overbooked, no one will be denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for a payment of the airline’s choosing. If there are not enough volunteers the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. The complete rules for the payment of compensation and each airline’s boarding priorities are available at all airport ticket counters and boarding locations. Some airlines do not apply these consumer protections to travel from some foreign countries although other consumer protections may be available. Check with the airline or your travel agent.

5.3.13. Baggage. Excess valuation may be declared on certain types of articles. Carriers may apply special rules for fragile, valuable, or perishable articles. Check with your carrier. Checked Baggage: Carriers may permit a free checked baggage allowance, which is set by the carrier and may differ by class, and/or route. Carriers may apply extra charges for checked baggage in excess of their permitted allowance. Check with your carrier. Cabin (Unchecked) Baggage: Carriers may permit a free cabin baggage allowance, which is set by the carrier and may differ by class, route, and/or aircraft type. It is recommended that cabin baggage be kept to a minimum. Check with your carrier. If more than one carrier is providing the transportation for your journey, each carrier may apply different rules on baggage (both checked and cabin). SPECIAL BAGGAGE LIABILITY LIMITATIONS FOR U.S. TRAVEL: For domestic travel wholly between U.S. points, federal rules require any limit on a carrier’s baggage liability to be at least US $3,800 per passenger, or the amount currently mandated by 14 CFR § 254.5. If you are checking baggage on a multi-ticket itinerary, you must exit security, retrieve your baggage, and re-check your baggage prior to your next flight (if applicable). You are solely responsible for understanding your baggage responsibilities on multi-ticket itineraries.

5.3.14. Check-In Times.  The time shown on the itinerary/receipt is the departure time of the aircraft. Flight departure time is not the same as the time you must check-in or the time you must be available for boarding. Your carrier may refuse you carriage if you are late. Check-in times, as advised by your carrier, are the latest times at which passengers can be accepted for travel; boarding times, as advised by your carrier, are the latest times at which passengers must present themselves for boarding. Flights cannot be held for late-arriving passengers, and Hopper accepts no responsibility in such cases.

5.3.15. Aircraft Disinsection. Some countries may require aircraft cabin insecticide treatment for in-bound foreign flights. A list of such countries is available at https://www.transportation.gov/airconsumer/spray.

5.3.16. Sequence of Travel. Airlines require passengers to travel as per the itinerary shown on their ticket, from the place of departure via any agreed connecting points to their final destination, and vice versa. If all the segments are not used in sequence, the ticket as a whole will lose its validity in most circumstances.

5.3.17. Hopper may receive commissions or other financial incentives from air carriers in connection with your air booking via the HTS Connect Services. In some cases, this incentive may be realized by Hopper as a markup included within the price that you pay to Hopper for such booking, and that price may differ from the price reflected on your carrier ticket or itinerary.    

5.3.18. Flights sold in the United Kingdom by Hopper are sold as agent of the carrier named on your ticket, and are not protected under the Air Travel Organisers’ Licensing scheme. 

5.4. Third-Party Sites. The HTS Connect Services may contain links to third-party websites that are not operated by Hopper. These links are provided for reference only. Hopper is not responsible for the contents or the privacy or other practices of such sites. You should review the terms applicable to any third-party site that you choose to access.

12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION; WAIVER OF RIGHTS.

12.1. ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER.  You agree that all claims, disputes, or disagreements that may arise out of the interpretation of or performance under  these Terms, any payments to Hopper, or otherwise related in any way to your use of the HTS Connect Services and/or the content therein, shall be submitted exclusively to binding arbitration, except that each party retains: (i) the right to bring an individual action in small claims court for disputes and actions within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction; and (ii) the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights. Arbitration means that an arbitrator and not a judge or jury will decide the claim. Rights to prehearing exchange of information and appeals may also be limited in arbitration. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND HOPPER ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. You further acknowledge and agree that you waive your right to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and Hopper otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this class action waiver is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this "Dispute Resolution" section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this "Dispute Resolution" section will survive any termination of these Terms. 

12.2. Arbitration Rules. Any arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). Except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” provision, the AAA will administer the arbitration in accordance with either (A) the Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect, or (B) the Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect if the matter involves a “consumer agreement” as defined by Consumer Arbitration Rule R-1 (together, the "Applicable AAA Rules"). (The Applicable AAA Rules are available at https://www.adr.org/Rules or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879). The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this entire “Dispute Resolution” provision.

12.3. Arbitration Process. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the Applicable AAA Rules. (The AAA provides applicable forms for Demands for Arbitration at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Demand_for_Arbitration_0.pdf (Commercial Arbitration Rules) and https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Consumer_Demand_for_Arbitration_Form_1.pdf (Consumer Arbitration Rules), and a separate affidavit for waiver of fees for California residents only is available at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/AAA%20Affidavit%20for%20Waiver%20of%20Fees%20Notice%20California%20Consumers.pdf.) The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the county in which you reside and will be selected in accordance with the Applicable AAA Rules. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within fourteen (14) days of the AAA’s notice to the parties of its receipt of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

12.4. Arbitration Location and Procedure. Unless you and Hopper otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and Hopper submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the Applicable AAA Rules. Subject to the Applicable AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

12.5. Arbitrator's Decision. The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the Applicable AAA Rules. The arbitrator's decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator's award of damages and/or other relief must be consistent with the terms of the "Limitations of Liability" section above as to the types and the amounts of damages or other relief for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide the relief warranted by the claimant's individual claim. If the arbitrator determines that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, and only if authorized under applicable law, the arbitrator may award reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. Hopper will not seek, and hereby waives, all rights Hopper may have under applicable law to recover attorneys' fees and expenses if Hopper prevails in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).

12.6. Fees. Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the Applicable AAA Rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $25,000, Hopper will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).

12.7. Changes. Hopper reserves the right to change this "Dispute Resolution" section, but any such changes will not apply to disputes arising before the effective date of such amendment. Notwithstanding the provisions of the modification-related provisions above, if Hopper changes this "Dispute Resolution" section after the date you first accepted the Terms(or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you agree that your continued use of the HTS Connect Services after such change will be deemed acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree to such change, you may reject any such change by providing Hopper written notice of such rejection by mail or hand delivery to: Hopper, Attn: Legal Department, 265 Franklin Street, Suite 1702, Boston, MA 02110 or by email from the email address associated with your account to: legal@hopper.com, within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated herein. In order to be effective, the notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to reject changes to this "Dispute Resolution" section. By rejecting changes, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between you and Hopper in accordance with the provisions of this "Dispute Resolution" section as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms, as applicable). 

13. Additional Terms.

These Terms constitute the entire agreement of the parties as to its subject matter, and supersede all prior written and oral representations and discussions between the parties. The Terms shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without reference to principles of conflicts of laws, except as otherwise provided above in Section 12. No delay or omission by Hopper in exercising any of its rights occurring upon any noncompliance or default by you with respect to these Terms will impair any such right or be construed to be a waiver thereof, and a waiver by Hopper of any of the covenants, conditions or agreements to be performed by you will not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach thereof or of any other covenant, condition or agreement hereof contained. You may not assign any of your rights arising under these Terms without Hopper’s written consent. Except as provided in Section 12 above (Dispute Resolution), if any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then these Terms will remain in full force and effect and will be reformed to be valid and enforceable while reflecting the intent of the parties to the greatest extent permitted by law. The provisions of these Terms are entered into for the benefit of Hopper and you and there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and any other Hopper agreement, terms, or policy provided to you, directly or indirectly, these Terms shall prevail.

14. Language.

You and Hopper have agreed that these Terms and all related documents be drawn up in the English language. Les parties aux présentes reconnaissent avoir convenu que la présente entente et les documents connexes soient rédigés en langue anglaise.

15. Updates and Changes. 

Hopper may make changes or updates to these Terms at any time, at its discretion. You agree that if you do not agree to any such change, you shall not book via the HTS Connect Services. Your failure to do so, or continued use of any HTS Connect  Service, shall constitute agreement to these Terms as so amended, except as provided for under Section 12.7.

Effective Date of these Terms of Service:  Version 1.1; August 16, 2024
